Thread: "Introduction to Modern Japanese" : vol.1 without vol.2 ? Post: "Introduction to Modern Japanese" : vol.1 without ... Thanks. I'll probably stick with "Japanese for Everyone" for now.

Thread: And the award for Slowest Japanese Language Learner goes to... Post: And the award for Slowest Japanese Language Learne...

Thread: Remembering the Kanji and Readings & Meanings Post: Remembering the Kanji and Readings & Meanings I'm sure one could be a serious student of Japanese without RTK, but if one were also serious about learning to read Japanese wouldn't RTK at least be an important part of one's studies?
